We know that 7 pounds of potatoes cost $63.

This is a proportional relationship between quantity (pounds of potatoes) and cost.

We can calculate how many pounds of potatoes we can get with $261 applying the Rule of three:

261\text{ \$}\cdot(\frac{7\text{ pounds}}{63\text{ \$}})=29\text{ pounds}

We can buy 29 pounds of potatoes with $261

NOTE: I use the units ($ and pounds) to know how to multiply them in order to get the result I was looking for.

How do i solve using the rational root theorem. 2x3-9x2-11x+8=0
Lapatulllka [165]
2(3)-9(2)-11x+8=0
(2)(3)-(9)(2)-11x+8=0
6+-18+-11x+8=0
(-11x)+(6+-18+8)=0 Combine Like Terms.
-11x+-4=0
-11x-4=0
Add 4 to both sides.
-11x-4+4=0+4
-11x=4
Divide both sides by -11.
-11x/-11=4/-11
x=-4/11

Hope this helps!

Shelia went snowboarding. She spent $118 for the pass and snowboard rental. The snowboard rental cost $25. What percent of the t
padilas [110]
I believe the answer is about 78.81% because you subtract 25 from 118. Then that would be 93. 118 is equal to the 100% and 118 divide by 1.18 equals 100. Divide 93 from 1.18 gives you the answer
